Overview
The target audience for this title are current .NET 1.1 developers and future .NET 2.0 developers who need to put Extreme Programming (XP) into practice. While other Extreme Programming books are usually theoretical in approach, this book takes the reader through the practical application of Extreme Programming with code-level solutions. It shows the reader how to apply the XP principles in a real-world environment. It provides an in depth look at each of the XP practices and shows the reader how each of these practices fits into the project development life-cycle. By showing developers how to work with .NET 1.1 today, and .NET 2.0 tomorrow, this book offers a long-term vision for Extreme Programming with Microsoft technologies.

Reviews
From the reviews: The purpose of this work is to take experienced software developers and mold them into enthusiastic practitioners of agile-programming in general, and of extreme programming in particular. ... this book is recommended reading for developers who may be joining an extreme programming project and for software development project managers who are not already committed to a particular methodology. It provides useful background reading before attending a course on the topic. (Neil D. Burgess, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (2), February, 2008)

Author Information
"Greg ""Hap"" Pearman has over 15 years experience in architecting and developing enterprise software solutions. Formally a senior architect and developer at Qwest Communications, Pearman was a leading member of a small elite team that developed and implemented extreme programming (XP) practices for the entire Qwest IT organization. This team worked with each Qwest IT project team to teach them XP and to follow up with those teams in the field after their training. This experience gave Pearman the unique opportunity to stress test XP under multiple and varying circumstances as an XP coach and mentor. Pearman has also architected and developed small and large enterprise systems using technologies such as J2EE, .NET (C#) and C++ for such companies as IBM, EPA, US WEST Direct, Multum Information Service and Qwest Communications."
